Female thinning hair and hairloss is an issue that affects at least 20% of women and can be very difficult to diagnose because the different conditions and causes can have a similar superficial appearance. Your doctor may initiate an early diagnosis or recommend the following tests to start a process of elimination before a dermatologist is recommended.
* Hormone levels (DHEAS,Testosterone, Androstenedione, Prolactin, Follicular Stimulating Hormone, and Leutinizing Hormone).
* Serum Iron, Serum Ferritin, TIBC (Total Iron Binding capacity)
* Thyroid Stimulating Hormone
* VDRL
* Complete Blood Count (CBC)
* Scalp Biopsy
